nadiaj0y 261 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 Okay, so I was going to write an essay about plastic surgery obsession in SK but realized it wouldn't cover for 1275 words that easily and it's a bit weird topic imo. I really need a research topic that can easily cover at least 1275 words. I want it to be interesting and simple with plenty of sources. Please help. Rough draft is due on Monday, fml. edit: it has to be at least 1275 words and it's for english class. the topic can be anything as long as it has a point. I'll also need help with a thesis because I have to send him it and he really likes to criticize it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athena 21,718 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 you really don't think you can get 1275 with your previous topic? you could expand it to "beauty standards/aesthetics in south korea" and within that you could talk about: traditional standards and how they still affect Korean society, plastic surgery, cosmetics boom, whiteness vs darkness, influence of kpop and kdrama industry, the affects of these high standards (pressure, obsession, suicide, etc), etc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Athena 21,718 Posted November 27, 2016 Share Posted November 27, 2016 that's true but the problem is the lack of reliable sources ah, i see. i tried looking in my school's library database and I couldn't find that many scholarly sources. But here's some: http://surface.syr.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1474&context=honors_capstone https://halshs.archives-ouvertes.fr/halshs-01211686/document and they both have a bibliography of other sources as well i found another good one but it's via my school meaning ppl outside can't access it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
